ISACK OF MYLOR

John Trethouan and Eleanor Isack were married at Mylor in 1665. The 1729 will of Hugh Isack of Stratton, Eleanor’s brother, mentions many relatives and provides significant information on this family.[1]

The will of Dorothea Trefusis of Mylor, proved in 1699, leaves “To Thomas Robins John Isack Sen^r Ellenor Trethowan and Doll Rogers twenty shillings a peice” as well as gloves to “Hugh and Richard Iseck my nurses sonns”.[2]
